I had just finished up with an appointment and I was starving! Sushi & Maki caught my eye in the…read moresame plaza so I thought I'd give them a try. Luckily, I got there just before the end of their lunch specials. I ordered their Lunch Bento Box 2 with Teriyaki Chicken that included California rolls, salad, rice, miso soup, and deep fried scallops. I substituted gyoza instead of the scallops. The miso soup offered some warmth on this cold day. It was simple but flavourful. The rest of the meal soon followed, presented in a typical fashion in a bento box. The presentation was nice but the teriyaki chicken appeared differently from what I'm used to seeing. Rather than stir-fried pieces of chicken, it appeared to have been cooked, partially shredded, and then sauced. It was also a bit dry, despite the sauce. Although the chicken was barely passable, the rest of the meal was good. The service was also good. Maybe I'll give them another chance...

Yes! I think I just found my new favourite sushi spot in Pickering! We were wandering around the…read moreplaza trying to figure out what to have for dinner and we popped in to Sakura Sushi. When I found out that they had poké bowls on the menu, the decision was made! And what a great decision that was! We ordered the salmon poké with spicy mayo. I was a little surprised that there was an extra charge for the mayo as most sushi places include it. The menu stated that the meal included salads and miso soup. The miso soup was inconsistent... his was a proper miso whereas mine was more of a bowl of hot water (see pic). We also never received the salad. Aside from the above, the poké bowl itself was delicious, the service was also super friendly and the environment was welcoming. We will definitely come back!

The rolls were well made and tasty, but I thought there was a bit too much rice and the volcano roll could use more sauce since it was deep fried.

After a three year reign, I think they have fallen off the fave sushi list.

I recently had dinner with a friend at their Ajax location and we may have over-indulged, but it was hard to resist all the goodness featured on their menu. As we dined, their robot passed our table several times, delivering dishes to other tables, including things we could/should have ordered. It all looked so good! Our over-indulgence included too many dishes to mention but they included sushi, sashimi, udon, tempura, maki, dim sum, and much more. Of course, we had to have some desserts - fried bananas, puddings, ice cream, and more! We were so stuffed, and happy. It was an excellent meal, with delicious food, and excellent service!

Dine in at this restaurant, spend at least $50 on your meal, and get a $10 voucher off your bill till May 9, 2026. - This eatery has an all-you-can-eat ice cream bar! This past Monday evening, I broke out of the house to have a dinner feast with a friend. We ordered a lot off the menu, guilty of eating with our eyes. I used to drop by this eatery maybe fifteen years ago fairly often. It was nice to return. I had no problem finding a parking spot fairly close to the main entrance. I backed into a spot and walked into the restaurant. We got these drinks: - Sapporo draft 20 oz - Diet Coke Refills on pop are free. I certainly took advantage of it! So refreshing. We ordered these goodies: - Garden salad - Gyoza (dumpling) (2 pcs) - Beef skewer (1 pc) - Fried calamari (2 pcs) - Pork cutlet - Enoki beef roll (2 pcs) - Yakitori (chicken) (1 pc) - Negimayaki (beef) (2 pcs) - Squid tempura (5 pc) - Crab tempura (1 pc) - Siu mai (2 pc) - Thai chicken coconut curry - Spicy California roll (6 pcs) - Mushroom tempura (2 pcs) - Coconut shrimp (1 pc) - Chicken with bao bun (1 pc) - Har gow (2 pc) - Chicken with mushroom - Beef udon - Chicken teriyaki - Beef with broccoli - Dynamite handroll (1 pc) - Crab pizza (4 pcs) - Spicy Crab handroll (1 pc) - Spicy crab on chip (1 pc) - Grilled butterfish sushi (1 pc) - Crab sushi (1 pc) - Beef short ribs (3 pcs) - Beef steak Delicious food! I could rave for hours on how yummy everything was. I will spare you! Highlights: - This place does tempura well. Crispy, without the oiliness. - The Thai chicken coconut curry was excellent. It had a bit of heat and I dipped everything in that amazing coconut curry. - Any protein on a skewer will not disappoint. - Chicken and mushrooms was a comforting dish. - The two hand rolls were excellent! There was only one dish that wasn't great. It was the beef steak that was more on the chewy side. There's something for everyone at this eatery. I thought that I couldn't shovel any dessert after our feast. I saw the all-you-can-eat ice cream bar and my stomach ignored now full it felt. I'd return for the desserts alone. We enjoyed these desserts: - Fried bananas (2 x 2 pcs) - Ice cream (orange, cotton candy, cookies and cream) - Tiramisu cake - Mini macaroon - Coconut pudding - Mango pudding - Creamsicle pudding The ice cream bar is the perfect end to your meal. My friend said to put the fried bananas in with the ice cream, which tastes like a banana split. He was right! This place has a couple of sushi robots. One had a cat face, which brought a birthday dessert to someone celebrating that evening. The other one was shorter and didn't have any face on it. I used the washroom before I left. The circular mirror with flowers on the counter were nice touches. I had a great time. It was nice returning for a fabulous dinner with great company. (150)

Great AYCE BBQ place similar to Gyubee. Not related to other restaurants…read more In comparison to the other bigger brands they have very similar variety and quality food. The quality and seasoning of meat were great. The spicy shrimp was lovely. The miso salmon was nice and soft. The same clams were lacking a little flavour and there were no vermicelli. The fries, takoyaki, wings and cheesy corn were great. I was surprised to see takowasa. It was not bad but could use more of the crunchy veggies and more wasabi flavours. The bibimbap was meatless and could use more sauce but the rice and egg was perfect. They offered a good Melona variety. The creme brulee was ordered to torch and came in a legit ramekin but I wished the sugar crust was thicker. Great service and environment. I did find the seats a bit cramped especially when sharing the middle booth. We were reminded of the 1.5hr last call and 2hr seating limit a few times though. And also reminded that if we cannot finish the food that we should set it aside... Overall, happy to see a nice AYCE BBQ place make it further into Durham!
